Thick As Thieves (3)

Prospero and his daughter have been wronged, set adrift in the Mediterranean by a usurping sibling and a rival king. They have lived on a deserted island for 12 years... well, almost deserted. When fate brings his enemies sailing past the island, Prospero decides to take matters into his own hands. What follows is a story of love, freedom and the consequences of heavy drinking.

The Tempest sweeps into Islington accompanied by some of outdoor theatre’s finest elements: relentless energy, breakneck costume changes, real foliage - and the best part is, you won’t need your umbrella.
